Abstract
The aim of the present study was to find out the presence of phytochemicals in the aqueous and alcoholic extracts of Aerva javanica by both qualitative and quantitative screening methods. In qualitative analysis, the phytochemical compounds such as steroids, reducing sugar, triterpenoids, alkaloids, phenolic compounds, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, cardiac glycosides and anthroquinones were screened in crude extracts by using standard methods. The methanol extract showed positive results for maximum number of compounds. In quantitative analysis the important secondary metabolites such as phenolic compounds, flavonoids and tannins were tested in all the three extracts. The methanol extract of showed highest amount of phytochemicals when compared with other solvent extracts.
